Exploring the
World of Number
Systems
Introduction to Number Systems
A number system is a way to represent numbers
using symbols or digits. There are many different
number systems, each with its own unique set of
rules and symbols. These systems form the
foundation of how we communicate and process
numerical data.
1 Decimal System 2 Binary System
The system we use in The binary number
everyday life is the system, with only two
decimal number digits (0 and 1), is

The octal number The hexadecimal
system uses eight system, with sixteen
digits (0-7) and is often digits (0-9 and A-F), is
used in computer useful for representing
programming. colours and memory
addresses in
computers.
Decimal Number System
The decimal number system, also known as the base-10 system, uses
ten distinct digits (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9). Each position in a decimal
number represents a power of ten, making it easy for us to understand
and manipulate numbers in everyday life.
Advantages Disadvantages
Familiar and easy to use. Less efficient for computers.
Widely used in daily life. Can be cumbersome for representing v
large numbers.
Binary Number System
The binary number system, or base-2
system, uses only two digits: 0 and 1. Each
digit position represents a power of two,
making it suitable for computers, which
operate on electrical signals that are either
on (1) or off (0).

Octal Number System
The octal number system, or base-8 system, uses
eight digits (0-7). Each position represents a power
of eight, offering a more compact representation
than binary while still being easily convertible to and
from binary.
Conversion
Convert each octal digit to its 3-bit binary equivalent.

Concatenation
Concatenate the resulting binary bits.

Decimal Equivalent
Convert the binary number to decimal.

Hexadecimal Number
System
The hexadecimal number system, or base-16
system, uses sixteen digits (0-9 and A-F), where
A represents 10, B represents 11, and so on.
Each position represents a power of sixteen,
making it useful for representing colours,
memory addresses, and other computer-related
data.
Ease of Conversion Compact Representation

Common in Programming
Widely used in programming and computer systems.
Conversions Between Number Systems
Converting between different number systems involves
understanding the place value system of each system and performing
mathematical operations to express a number in another base.
Decimal to Binary 1
Repeatedly divide the decimal
number by 2, noting the
remainders. 2 Binary to Decimal

Repeatedly divide the decimal
number by 8, noting the Octal to Decimal
remainders. 4
Multiply each octal digit by its
Decimal to Hexadecimal corresponding power of 8 and
5 sum the results.
Repeatedly divide the decimal
number by 16, noting the Hexadecimal to Decimal
remainders. 6
Multiply each hexadecimal
digit by its corresponding
power of 16 and sum the
results.
Arithmetic Operations in
Different Number Systems
Performing arithmetic operations (addition,
subtraction, multiplication, division) in different
number systems involves understanding the rules
and carry-over mechanisms specific to each base.

Addition Subtraction

Applications of Number Systems
Number systems have various applications in computer science,
engineering, and other fields, allowing us to represent and manipulate
data efficiently.

allowing them to process and store those found in smartphones, watches,
Conclusion
Understanding different number systems
provides a broader perspective on how
we represent and manipulate numbers.
These systems form the foundation for
many technological advancements and
have shaped the way we interact with
data and information.
